What happens when students become the teachers? Mrs. Krenzler’s Grade 9 and 10 Math students recently found out, stepping up to lead lessons and flip the script on traditional learning. Students engaged in innovative teaching activities to enhance their understanding of mathematical concepts while fostering communication and risk-taking skills.
Our Primary Years Programme (PYP) is the perfect learning environment for fostering scientific thinking and curiosity. Our hands-on, experiential approach allows our students to explore scientific concepts through creativity, collaboration, and inquiry.
Zack M. (Grade 8) brought his creativity and problem-solving skills to the role of stage manager for the Middle School Theatre production A Year with Frog & Toad. For the past three years, Zack has managed behind-the-scenes theatre at Meadowridge, overseeing the coordination of everything from cues to cast movements.
In an exciting hands-on learning experience, Grade 4 students delved into medicinal plants by foraging for broadleaf plantain, also known as frog leaf. Thanks to our knowledgeable Indigenous neighbours, we’re learning about the many uses of this plant, and our students have been eager to explore its healing properties.
Grade 5 students recently engaged in an exciting mini-exhibition focusing on the human body as part of their Who We Are Unit of Inquiry. Students explored one of the body’s major systems, respiratory, circulatory, muscular, skeletal, or digestive and became experts, sharing their findings with peers and teachers.
Field trip days at Meadowridge School are full of anticipation and excitement for our elementary students, who arrive with an extra spring in their step, eager for the adventures ahead.
As part of Meadowridge’s Week Without Walls (WWOW) program, students across Grades 6 to 12 embarked on exciting outdoor adventures. These trips allow students to disconnect from technology, explore nature, and bond with their classmates. Read about Joella, Leila, and Emma’s memorable adventures.
Ms. Robyn Sheffield is a familiar face at Meadowridge. Since joining in 2022, she has taken charge of the school's website and digital communications. From designing emails to managing website content, she plays an essential role in keeping the school connected.
At Meadowridge School, learning is an adventure that fosters creativity, adaptability, and real-world experiences. During our summer enhancements, the Visual Arts Studio was getting a makeover and finding its new home in the Arts Centre.
We are excited to welcome four new staff and faculty to the Meadowridge Community for the 2024/25 school year. Join us in celebrating by learning a little more about them.
